The widening and deepening of the European Union (EU) is the most prominent example, but there has also been a revitalization or expansion of many other regionalist projects as well, such as the African Union (AU), the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and the Southern Common Market (Mercosur). More or less every government in the world is engaged in regionalism, which also involves a rich variety of business and civil society actors, resulting in a multitude of regional processes in most fields of contemporary politics. In this new text, Fredrik Serbaum draws on decades of scholarship to provide a major reassessment of regionalism and to address questions about its origins, logic and consequences. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBy examining regionalism from historical, spatial, comparative and global perspectives, \u003ci\u003eRethinking Regionalism\u003c\/i\u003e transcends the deep intellectual and disciplinary rivalries that have limited our knowledge about the subject. This broad-ranging approach enables new and challenging answers to emerge as to why and how regionalism evolves and consolidates, how it can be compared, and what its ongoing significance is for a host of issues within global politics, from security and trade to development and the environment. Retaining a balanced and authoritative style throughout, this text will be welcomed for its uniquely comprehensive examination of regionalism in the contemporary global age.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Fredrik Serbaum\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 023027241X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780230272415\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Red Globe Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/24\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 0.60d","brand":"Fredrik Serbaum","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43987270271231,"sku":"9780230272415","price":54.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_31987317-0edd-4d53-9878-613f21670ec8.jpg?v=1683287979","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/rethinking-regionalism-fredrik-sderbaum-9780230272415","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
